wow retro-zilla that scrieks crappy old nail place that everyone loves or corner store that everyone visits for some slush =) what i'm trying to say is, this font is classic beautifull but also could be used as dinner party or million doller menu. works for all**

I love this font and would like to use it for my daughter's wedding. However, it won't let me make a PDF. Can I purchase the license needed? The piece is ready to go to the printer so I would appreciate it if you could get back to me quickly. Thanks!

So hey kidz. I googled the font maker "Bright Ideas Fonts" and this was the only response to the question you've all been ask'n:

Regarding ADDRESS CONTACT INFO:

"I'm pretty much sure that there's no way this can be made as a permanent topic, so it doesn't dissappear.

I'm receiving numerous email from people that are asking me for permission to use this or that font (mostly Bright Ideas Fonts). Since there is NO WEB SITE of Bright Ideas, and most of those fonts are on the internet since forever, we have NO INFORMATION about licensing and commercial use of those fonts.

Thank you and Merry Christmas."

"Why a lot of web sites have this font and nobody knows if we can use BRIGHT IDEAS FONTS??

me suena ilógico

A.V."

"Because Bright Ideas never supplied any license info in their fonts.
They are long gone anyway.

For the suggestion that Riesling is a ripoff of Mighty Ditey NF: I have both and had a look at the glyphs. While they are both Art Deco fonts, they are clearly not the same, there are substantial differences, none of the letterforms seem identical.
Given that the original designer cannot be found by anyone, consider it abandonware and use it commercially as you see fit. I would have no compulsion editing it to make it embeddable either. But that's just me.

I downloaded that font but it didnt work. When i want to use it, it turns into a kind of prose. I used that font for my logo before, so i need to use it again. When will you have new version of this app? Please answer me very important

The Riesling (1999, Bright Ideas) and the mentioned Mighty Ditey NF (2007, Nick Curtis) are both a digital variation of the Aphrodite (Richard Nebiolo for Photolettering).
For those in doubt whether the Riesling can be legally used commercially the Mighty Ditey NF is a save way out for just € 8.http://myfonts.us/td-jA1kPe
